#ImageOfTheDay The La Soufriere volcano on the Caribbean island of St. Vincent erupted yesterday after decades of inactivity, spewing plumes of ash and smoke & forcing thousands to evacuate The Copernicus EMS #RapidMapping has been activated #Sentinel3🇪🇺🛰️ imaged the plume

Look how the spectators form a human isotherm (line of equal temperature). That basalt lava glowing orange will be at at least 800°C and the radiant heat is ferocious, like a massive bonfire. It's intolerable to be closer than about 5 m for more than a few seconds at a time.

#ImageOfTheDay #Update Multiple explosive episodes at the #LaSoufriere volcano are producing massive ash plumes By comparing the #Sentinel3🇪🇺🛰️images of 9 April (plume ~150km long) & 10 April (~650km) we can visualise the quantity of smoke & ash emitted #LaSoufriereEruption

Yesterday, I gave one of my weirdest talks ever at #IAVCEI2023, sharing science advisory experience at the frontline during the response to the 2019 Whakaari #eruption. Here are some take home messages for those who may have to do it in the future IAVCEI ECR-Net #SciComm #volcano

The final day of #IAVCEI2023 and I gave my talk on the application of social sensing to volcanology, using #Kilauea #volcano as a case study. Nice to speak on a drastically different subject to normal, and the many opportunities of this new method 🤓🌋 IAVCEI-NZ
